Boosting Your Self-confidence When the Pandemic Takes its Toll

Last night I came to the realization that my self-confidence has been shaken. It wasn’t one event or circumstance. It was gradually over time … pandemic time. I realized that my professional self-confidence is only a glimmer of what it was pre-COVID. Like the frog in the boiling pot analogy, I didn’t even realize what was happening.

  • The Akin Partner Who Helped Change Pro Bono in Big Law - Steven Schulman has spent the past three decades helping reshape the role of pro bono work in Big Law. After building Latham & Watkins’ pro bono program, he persuaded Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld to create a full-time pro bono partnership for him. Since then, he has watched corporate firm pro bono work expand from fewer than 1 million hours nationwide in 1994 to more than 5 million annually today, a transformation that mirrors his own rise as one of the country’s leading pro bono advocates. Colleagues say Schulman, who is based in Dallas, has helped drive that growth, leveraging his role to shape not only Akin’s pro bono program but also the broader legal profession’s approach to public service.  July 30, 2026Krista Torralva
